This is a 97-photo gallery from pole qualifying for the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway on Sunday, February 8, 2009. Thanks to Dave Franks for sharing his work. Fans of Canadian racing will recognize Bob Barron in several of the photos. Bob is the head of CARQUEST's motorsports program. CARQUEST is a co-sponsor of the #5 Hendrick car driven by Mark Martin (who qualified 2nd fastest on Sunday). Martin Truex Jr. posted the fastest time. You can see Dave Franks' website here.
